Teh weekend...

After finishing off a very long day AND week, I was more than ready for a beer on Friday night. We (the boss and his wife, scott, estaban and his girl and another co-worker who is moving back to cali) went to 'our' bar, the strip club, Denny's (i feel for those late night waitresses) then our house. Sleep finally came at about 4:30am. I, thankfully, was allowed to sleep in and it was sorely needed and appreciated. Attended a BBQ on saturday that consisted of friends from high school, work and friends of friends. My friend (who is also my immediate boss) lives on the land that our OTHER friends' family owns so we had acres of land at our disposal when we took the ATV's out. That was needed. Theres something refreshing about flying over rutted roads on a 4-wheeler at dusk. That evening wasn't as long or nearly as adventurous as the previous and I was in bed at a decent hour.
Today was absolutely fucking beautiful. It was the first time I was able to sit outside and just soak up the sun. It was as if my skin was parched from the winter months and the sun quenched its thirst. IT FELT SO GOOD! I am more than ready for summer to be here.
I think I am going to sign up for a couple 5k's this summer. I want to get back to where I was physically before I got injured in 2006 and pregnant in '07. My goal is to be ready to commit to a half marathon by fall of next year. That means running, more running and lots more running!!! I'll need to invest in a good pair of shoes.
Even though the weekend was busy and full it was thoroughly enjoyed and definitely a must to ensure a nice relaxed beginning to another full week.
